摘要：
Morbidity due to schistosomiasis was evaluated in a subpopulation of 14,000 of the randomized sample in the Epidemiology 1, 2, 3 Project. It was measured by using a standardized questionnaire for obtaining medical history and symptoms and by performing standardized physical and ultrasound examinations. Reported herein are descriptions of the methods and training and quality control efforts made to insure that the morbidity data was reliable and consistent when collected by 7 different teams in 9 different governorates.
